that you can store and install from a secondary SD Micro chip to root your phone? My problem is on an old LG Stylo 3 phone where the USB file sharing option/port has been turned off. And I know all about the developer mode where it says USB Configuration: Charging only. You open it and put a checkmark on the MTP File transfer protocol option. It won't change. That has me wondering if the USB has an Android USB driver that been deleted or altered? Or, if it has a configuration file that's been altered or deleted? And I already know about the "Backup and Restore". That didn't work. To make changes you need to root the phone. And to be able to root the phone you need access through that USB port. And none of those root apps work. Basically you don't really own your phone when you can't make changes on it when you want to. My OS is Android 7 and the phone is unlocked. I can change carriers but I just can't change the OS. And last serious replies only. If you can't help then don't bother replying.

Why would I want to check out a Chinese made operating system? How bad do I want to be spied on? Completely spied on?

Software (topic of the thread) isn't chinese. You are the one that originally brought the Chinese into this discussion. And you are the one that asked a question about software and then changed it to hardware. Spied on? By the friendly chinese? Oh come on now.

Oh come on now. That was in my thread title. I figured I'd explain in the body what I wanted and needed. And why. Now are you gonna help or not?
Friendly Chinese. HUH! Like a snake friendly.

There are literally hundreds of distros of Linux. Now which one is most similar to Windows without all the BS that comes with Windows? You didn't answer my question then and you're not answering my question now.

Yes I did - I told you to get the chinese one. Then you blathered on some nonsense about being spied upon. As if.

So you people aren't gonna help. You're just gonna waste my time. And the XDA Developer site is also a waste of time. That is a GOD awful click bait site. You never find what you're looking for but you damn sure get click baited.
I wrote serious replies only and I get nonsense.
